A Palestinian man was killed by Israeli gunfire south of the West Bank city of Hebron on Monday night. The man was not armed and was not carrying identifying papers.

Also Monday night, seven settlers were lightly wounded when a Qassam rocket fired by Palestinians hit a residential building in the Gaza Strip settlement of Nisanit, Israel Radio reported.

Earlier, another settler was wounded when a home-made Qassam rocket hit Nisanit. The Israeli was moderately wounded when one rocket hit a house in the settlement.

Several rockets, anti-tank missiles and mortar shells were fired at Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip overnight but the Nisanit attack was the only one that caused casualties, the army said, according to The AP.
